Hi, thanks for the suggestion.

I am a bit hesitant to try this. What if I succeed in downloading the empty file, then fail in downloading a real file afterwards. Then I will be stuck with a remote with an empty file, which obviously is of no use to me.

Is there anyone with similar experiences or with an explanation as to what could be wrong. I want to tread very carefully now, after all I am able to at least use the remote for certain task as it is, although nowhere near anything that can justify the price....

BTW, I have of course restarted the PC and tried afterwards, with no other programs running.
